Hello everyone! 🙂

Meet Long Legs. We call her Long Legs because her lengthy limbs were the first thing my son noticed when she first appeared about ten months ago in the basement of Fennel Building in Cedar Crest. She's a clever and sweet girl, really pretty too :)

Long Legs already had an eartip when we met her. And she has always been unafraid of humans. In fact, she seems to seek them –at least the ones she feels will be kind to her, I think. She probably had people looking after her somewhere in Cedar Crest or Acacia Estates before she found her way to our building.

A few weeks ago, I noticed a bald spot and scratches on her nape which eventually seemed to get better. But a few nights ago, she showed up with a wound on the side of her neck. It didn't look that bad at the time, so I thought it was best to wait and observe first.

Then two days later, the wound had become much bigger and deeper. I decided to take her to Biyaya Animal Care on April 16 where Doc Jam, the attending vet, recommended doing wound repair to clean, drain and close up the wound. She said it was necessary as leaving it open would exacerbate the infection, so she performed the procedure on the same day.

Right now, Long Legs is still in confinement. If Doc Jam tells me she's ready to be discharged, she can come home to Cedar Crest tomorrow.

Long Legs' running bill is P10,995. Part of it had to be paid when she was admitted so the procedure could be done. I do hope help with her bills can come her way, any amount will be greatly appreciated 🙏🙏🙏

PSPSPS 😁: Most of us know she's not the only community cat that has needed and will need medical attention. And though the expenses can be quite heavy, I still wish for them to always be safe and well in our community 🙏♥️

When the PMO chooses not to work with the volunteers, the community cats are the ones who suffer.

This has to be a two-way partnership. It only works when there is support and shared responsibility from the Property Management.

The Volunteers of Cats of Celandine choosing to have their community cats adopted out is not giving up. They are choosing what’s best for the cats. They’ve seen that the current environment no longer meets the cats’ basic needs. So instead of keeping them there, they are placing them in homes where they can be safe and properly cared for, especially with the hot season coming up.

These animal welfare issues were enabled by the Property Management.

The current decisions and conditions have led two (2) to clear violations of The Five Freedoms for animals.

𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁: The environment they were placed in does not meet their basic need for safety and comfort. (no proper ventilation, no proper natural lighting for an extended period of time)

𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼𝗿: Cats are being pushed into caging without medical reason, limiting their ability to move, explore and act naturally.

These are not optional standards, but rather the basics of animal welfare.

Again, we call on our allies in animal welfare working in DMCI. Let's not step backwards. We're making great strides here in Acacia Estates. We are doing our best to define the standards that matter. These are work we can implement in other properties provided that the PMOs are equipped with the right knowledge and tools to make it work. It's never too late.

For now, please share the word and help the volunteers of Celandine find homes for the 12 lovely cats they have in their care.

🚨 POSSIBLE LOST PET SPOTTED 🐾

This very sweet and friendly cat was seen at the Savemore driveway outside Coffee Bean. He approaches people easily and seems comfortable around humans, which may mean he once had a home.

🐱 Male
🎨 Light orange and white coat
✂️ Not neutered
📍 Location: Savemore driveway, outside Coffee Bean

If you recognize this cat or know who the owner might be, please send us a message so we can help bring him home.

Please help share so the owner can find him. 🧡

🚨 URGENT: Possible Lost Pet Cat Found 🚨

Earlier today, building security reported a cat clinging to the window grills of a unit. (See pics: and yes, that was the position we found him in. We couldn't understand the report too until we actually saw him in person)

We were already able to safely secure him. He is extremely scared but not aggressive at all. His behavior, especially trying to climb through a window, strongly suggests he may be a lost indoor pet trying to get back home.😭

If you or someone you know is missing a cream/white male cat with blue eyes, please message us immediately with proof of ownership.

At the moment, we are extremely at full capacity. We already have 8 cats (6 recovering from kapon) under our care who cannot be released and are waiting to be rehomed. We do not have the space or proper enclosure to house another cat long-term.

We urgently need:
• To find his owner
• A foster who can temporarily house him
• Supplies: a bigger cage, litterbox etc
• Any leads on missing pets in the area

Please share this post within the community. Every hour matters for a frightened cat like this.

And a gentle but important reminder: abandoning or “letting a cat loose” within the community is not a solution. We are only a small volunteer group of residents, and while we try our best to step up when emergencies happen, we cannot absorb every new cat that appears. The load is continuous, and our capacity is also limited (and already extremely stretched out as it is).

Responsible pet ownership (ensuring your home is "takas-proof", spaying/neutering to stop mating related roaming instincts, and commitment for life) is the only sustainable way forward.

Let’s help this cat get back where he belongs by sharing this post. 🙏

We are proud to launch the AE Cat Collective Virtual Adoption Center 🐾🧡

For years, our community cats have been cared for by residents and dedicated volunteers across Acacia Estates. They’ve been fed, neutered, vaccinated and monitored daily. Many of them are now ready for indoor life and a family of their own.

Adopting a community cat is giving a life a second chance.

These cats already know how to survive. What they’re looking for now is companionship. A quiet corner. A couch to nap on. Someone to come home to. Someone to wait for. 🥹

Responsible community cat care is not just about managing population. It is also about opening doors when the time is right. Finding homes in a careful and intentional way, so both the cat and the adopter are ready.

This virtual space allows us to rehome cats thoughtfully, while protecting the balance of our community and giving each cat a real shot at a safe and permanent home.

Adopting moves from just helping day to day to choosing to help for life.

If you’ve been looking for companionship, a little warmth in your home, or a reason to smile after a long day, this might be your sign. ✨

Visit the Virtual Adoption Center and start your application here: bit.ly/AEAdoptionCenter

Your home could be someone’s forever.
